A construction worker walks along the newly rebuilt U pier at Seattle's Shilshole Bay Marina on Wednesday. The marina, originally built in the late 1950s, is owned by the Port of Seattle. In 2004, the port started a six-year, $80 million project that includes the replacement of all of the marina's 22 docks with a new mix of slip sizes. The port also plans to increase dry boat storage up to 100 spaces, build a new restaurant and create a 1,400-square-foot rental storage space. Also included will be new restrooms and showers, laundry and garbage/recycling facilities. less
